EFI African Designer Accelerator Programme Fashion Shows 2021 - Fashion Channel

EFI African Designer Accelerator Programme Fashion Shows 2021 - Fashion Channel The Ethical Fashion Initiative (EFI) is a flagship program of the International Trade Centre, a joint agency of the United Nations and the World Trade Organization. For the Ethical Fashion Initiative, lifestyle choices impact livelihoods. EFI creates and strengthens social enterprises in emerging economies to connect discerning international brands in fashion, interiors and fine foods with talented local designers, artisans and micro-producers. The EFI Accelerator programme is part of EFI's Identity Building and Sharing Business Initiative", an EU-funded project to showcase creativity and talent in fashion and beyond, in an effort to strengthen the culture sectors including art, photography, cinema and music. The four designers featured - Margaux Wong, Lukhanyo Mdingi, WUMAN and JIAMINI - were hand selected as part of the organisation’s first edition of the programme, launched in 2019. Chosen from hundreds of applications, the designers have benefitted from mentoring and business support from the EFI team and a panel of experts including United Arrows’ Hirofumi Kurino, Ethical Fashion Initiative’s Susi Billingsley and Activist and Actress Dakore Egbuson-Akande and will now present their collections via Pitti Immagine Uomo. subscribe to fashion channel - http://bit.ly/1OdEd04 The best videos, the most exclusive moments of the international runway since 1982 until now, of the most representat
